PayPal Express Checkout payment actions

I see that with PayPal Express you can set the payment action to Authorization, Order or Sale. The is an explanation of them at

https://www.paypal-knowledge.com/infoce … id=FAQ1501

I see that K9 (like CCP8) uses Sale as standard.

The problem with Sale is that it takes the funds immediately and gives you no flexibility if any issues arise (unlike our card processing gateway where we only get an initial authorisation).

If Authorization or Order are used, it looks like only an API call can be used initiate the actual payment when goods are shipped. Can anyone confirm if that correct or can they also be released manually within PayPals management interface?

Is K9 set up to handle these other 2 methods and if so how does it work?

Re: PayPal Express Checkout payment actions

To modify this behavior, update {private}/apps/ecom/ECOM_OLP/ext/paypalproe.php, and change:

Code:

<PaymentAction>Sale</PaymentAction>

To whatever you require.  This appears twice in the file.
